A Practical Guide to Dashboarding
summary
Practical, hands‑on guide that builds a tiny .NET API in Docker, emits StatsD timers to Graphite/Whisper and visualises rate, error and duration in Grafana so the dashboards are reproducible. It advocates Grafana + Graphite + StatsD baselines (RED and Google golden signals), shows a real incident where errors climb from ~13 to ~78 upstream, a Kinesis backlog reveals a cached error loop, and fixing the lambda stops the cascade. Demo runs live and the production pattern proves effective.
